I wasn't really that interested in objects. I was interested in ideas.

Artists are mystics rather than rationalists. They leap to conclusions that logic cannot reach.

[The artist's aim is] not to instruct the viewer, but to give him information... . The artist would follow his predetermined premise to its conclusion, avoiding subjectivity. Chance, taste, or unconsciously remembered forms would play no part in the outcome. The serial artist does not attempt to produce a beautiful or mysterious object but functions merely as a clerk cataloguing the results of his premise.

I wasn't really that interested in objects. I was interested in ideas.

When an artist uses a conceptual form of art, it means that all of the planning and decisions are made beforehand and the execution is a perfunctory affair. The idea becomes a machine that makes the art.

All of the significant art of today stems from Conceptual art. This includes the art of installation, political, feminist and socially directed art.

I was not interested in irony; I wanted to emphasize the primacy of the idea in making art
